Hi all! *waves at everyone*

I'm new to this appreciation thread (well, kind of, as I was part of the Danny & Johnny Appreciation Thread, and was devastated when the very, VERY hot Danny left EE a month or so ago).

So now I have to turn my attention to the very cute Johnny, and a genuinely nice guy too. I love the whole Carter family, in fact! Loved Johnny's coming out storyline in the New Year, thought that was brilliantly and very sensitively done. The scene between him and his Dad was just amazing when he came out to him. Sam Strike is a great actor too. He's been a very welcome addition to the cast for me! It's funny, he's only been there a couple of months now, but it feels like he's been there much longer to me, I'm not sure why!

As an aside, I think EE is on fire at the moment - each episode over the past few weeks has been fantastic!

Welcome to the thread! Yay for new people!

I also posted on the Danny & Johnny Appreciation Thread and was really upset/cross when Danny was written out. IMO, it's the only mistake that DTC has really made in terms of casting and axings. I think Gary Lucy is a very talented actor and Danny and Johnny had so much potential as a couple. Sigh.

But I suppose I try not to dwell on things too much, and I'm looking forward to seeing how Johnny develops (in a romantic sense) without Danny around. The Walford Wonder thing was his last 'main' storyline (I know he's appeared in it since then but only really as bit part in other stuff) so it will be interesting to see how he does next week when he's very much centre stage with his new job in Sharon's bar and his stuff with Whitney.

And I totally agree about Sam being a great actor; I honestly think he's a natural in front of the camera. He's got such a lovely, expressive face.

Eastenders is brilliant at the moment, and with Johnny back in it tonight it can only get better.

I agree Gary Lucy had so much more to offer and i liked the idea of him and Johnny getting it on.

Hi Elly!

Thanks very much for the warm welcome. I was so disappointed that Danny was written out too. Danny and Johnny had so much potential as a couple, and now we'll never get to see what might have been... It's a real shame

Loved that Walford Wonder storyline! Johnny has been quite underused lately so it will be great to see him on screen again, and to the forefront again.

I totally agree with you about Sam having a lovely expressive face, a very natural actor (and cute too!)

Watching EastEnders now - forgot it was on for 2 episodes - was so happy when I realised!

Edit - OMG Johnny's on!! YAY!! Looking gorgeous as always!!

And I totally agree with you and Poison Ivan - I loved the idea of Danny and Johnny getting it on! *fans myself* Be still, my beating heart!!

ok I squeed a little when Johnny appeared. favorite guy with a blue shirt & s gorgeous smile. yes yes yes, he's back!

I totally loved it when the guy said "guess" and smiled at Johnny, and then he smiled back. The punter looked very hot, and I didn't thought he would have a girlfriend... I honestly hope he comes back again, lol. Just because he and Johnny looked good in their minimal interaction

Oh Linda, I feel like this is totally deja-vu. Even their dialogue when she pulled him away from the guy. I honestly don't feel sorry for her- only Johnny that his mother treats him like this. Can not wait for next weeks episodes!

Mick & Johnny should totally have more scenes together, they just feel so natural and not even like acting. Johnny is the most generous, caring, loving, sweet etc guy EE has had in a LONG time. He loves his family so much, and it's clear that he loves his mother despite her not accepting his sexuality.

Can't wait for tomorrows episode! He's back! Our guy is back!

Thank you for the welcome Andreas! It was great to see Johnny again last night, looking gorgeous as always. Such a shame that the guy Johnny was talking to (who was HOT!!!) had a girlfriend, I was hoping it could be the start of a potential new romance between them now that the gorgeous Danny has gone. Oh well... Maybe the guy from last night will be back, who knows! Let's hope so anyway. Roll on tonight's episode - and more Johnny, hopefully!

I'm definitely in agreement that I'd love to see more between Johnny and hot random guy in the bar.

Tonight's episode should be great. Really looking forward to seeing Sharon and Johnny interacting.

I really didn't see any attraction between him and the guy. It was friendly banter. You get that when you go in pubs. I get it all the time. It doesn't mean i or they are flirting with me

It's mainly because that guy was hot that I wanted to see more.

Just noticed this little exchange in Sam's mentions:

James walker ‏@jameswalker1979 · 29m
@AttitudeMag how do we get a sneaky peak of the @SamStrike cover ?

Attitude Gay Mag ‏@AttitudeMag · 28m
@jameswalker1979 @SamStrike its coming soon...keep watching

So Sam has done a cover (and presumably an interview?) for Attitude Magazine. Good stuff. They're currently unveiling the 20th Anniversary covers so I wonder if he's on one of these?

Edit: Should have looked further down. Looks like a lovely interview/photoshoot with him and Danny.

Definitely buying this magazine!

Good having Sam back. He has been working out a bit. Hope he does not over do it. To be honest did not think he need to at all in the first place. But still nice to have him back.

I'm not sure if he's physically any different, or if he's just been wearing slightly tighter clothes that show off his arms a bit more. On that Sport Relief thing you could see that his natural body type is tall and slim but with a slightly more developed upper body. And Sam seems physically really active so I'd expect him to be quite buff.

Lol at me discussing Sam's body type.
